Florentino Authorizes Star Player's Exit to Germany, They'll Pay 20 Millions for Him

RB Leipzig seems willing to pay Juanlu Sánchez's release clause to Sevilla, a winger who was liked by Real Madrid

European soccer is experiencing days of key movements in the market. This time, the protagonist is Juanlu Sánchez, one of Sevilla's most outstanding talents.

RB Leipzig has set its sights on the young full-back. According to close sources, the German club would be willing to pay the 20 million euros corresponding to his release clause.

Real Madrid, alert but without moves

Juanlu Sánchez was on Real Madrid's radar in recent months. His talent and potential caught the attention of the white team. However, Florentino Pérez seems to have ruled out, at least for now, his transfer.

Although there were rumors of initial interest, the club didn't make any official moves. According to reports, they don't see the player as a priority to strengthen their team.

RB Leipzig has established itself as an attractive destination for young talents. The German team, known for its focus on player development, could be the ideal place for Juanlu to make the definitive leap in his career.

At 20 years old, the Sevillian player has shown great potential. His speed, dribbling, and ability to make a difference in the final third of the field make him a safe bet for Leipzig.

Florentino gives the green light to the operation

Although Real Madrid was linked to the player, Florentino Pérez hasn't put any obstacles in the way of his move to Germany. The Madrid board understands that the operation doesn't directly affect their interests.

Sevilla, for its part, would accept the departure as long as the clause is paid. For the Andalusian club, this financial injection is key in their sports planning.

With Leipzig willing to pay the 20 million, the transfer seems imminent. Juanlu Sánchez would have the opportunity to play in the Bundesliga, a league that has catapulted numerous young promises to stardom.

For now, Sevilla fans are preparing to say farewell to one of their most promising talents. Meanwhile, Real Madrid remains alert to the market, looking for players who fit into their long-term project.
